Specific Outcome

 

  

A probable Solution
tidal work, including any shore
abutment, piling or other structure
connected with the work—

(i) does not place an additional
load on any existing revetment

or seawall or another existing
structure; or

(ii) can be structurally supported
by an existing revetment or
seawall or another existing
structure;

(b) if a relevant planning scheme
standard is more stringent than the
standard mentioned in paragraph
(a)—the relevant planning scheme
standard, to the extent it is more
stringent than the standard
mentioned in paragraph (a).

12.3 Prescribed tidal work is designed
and constructed in a way to ensure it
does not adversely affect the stability of
the bed and banks of any tidal water.

The design and construction of the

.| prescribed tidal work is consistent with the

following standards—

(a) subject to paragraph (b), prescribed
tidal work does not cause, by
changing the flow of water, the
removal of, or disturbance to, the
sediment on the bed and banks of
any tidal water;

(b) if a relevant planning scheme
standard is more stringent than the
standard mentioned in paragraph
(a)—the relevant planning scheme
standard, to the extent it is more
stringent than the standard
mentioned in paragraph (a).

The works are proposed specifically to maintain existing tidal
movements and prevent the tidal water scouring behind the
existing revetment wall, scouring out the road base and therefore
changing the flow of tidal water.

The certification by Councils RPEQ means that the design has
been checked to be stable and achieve the intended function.

 

12.4 Prescribed tidal work is designed
and constructed using materials having
a long life in marine environments,
having regard to their ability to resist

 

 

The design and construction of the
prescribed tidal work is consistent with
the following standards—

(a) subject to paragraph (b), each

 

300 @ -500@ basalt rocks have been selected and are
commonly used in construction of revetment walls due to
their ability to resist

(a) attack by marine organisms;
